Reverse description The serpent deity Glykon, depicted with a coiling serpentine body and a human or leonine face, shown in profile to the right. The cult figure, associated with the sanctuary of Abonuteichos, is rendered in low provincial relief with the coils of the body arranged centrally in the field. The surrounding Greek legend names the local magistrate responsible for the issue. The type reflects the widespread influence of the Glykon cult in Asia Minor during the Antonine period.
